Distinct clinical phenotype and genetic testing strategy for Lynch syndrome in China based on a large colorectal cancer cohort

Abstract: Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) predisposition syndrome. We performed a large‐scale study to assess a screening strategy for identifying LS in Chinese CRC patients in routine clinical testing. A total of 4,195 eligible CRCs were universally screened. Then, 8.7% of CRCs were detected with dMMR. The incidence of LS was 2.7% (115 of 4,195) in this cohort; among patients over 70 years of age, only 0.3% (2 of 678) were diagnosed as LS. Then, 17.4% of LS cases showed large g… Show more

“…Among 4195 eligible patients from the Colorectal Cancer Initiative Screening Program for Lynch Syndrome (CRISPLS) in the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 2015 and December 2017, we identified a cohort of 69 patients with loss of the MSH2 and/or MSH6 proteins who had been screened by IHC staining for tumor MMR proteins. Detailed information on the CRISPLS cohort was previously reported (22). Clinicopathological characteristics and information about cancer personal/family history were collected for patients from the CRISPLS cohort who had undergone surgical resection and for whom a sufficient DNA sample was available.…”

“…Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumors and adjacent normal tissue were collected from the cohort. Genomic DNA was extracted using a TGuide Genomic DNA One-Step Kit and a TGuide Automated Nucleic Acid Preparation Instrument (TIANGEN BIOTECH, Beijing, China) according to the manufacturer's instructions as previously described (22).…”

“…Moreover, limited data, focusing on only MMR genes, have been published about germline hereditary susceptibility in Chinese CRC patients [23]. In our present research, we collected tumor samples from CRC patients diagnosed at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center (SYSUCC; Guangzhou, Guangdong, China), who were recommended to undergo a hereditary CRC 14-gene screening.…”
